I poured everything I had into playing this incomparable artist, Mr. Bob Dylan, a true American hero. It was the honor of a life time playing him. It&#8217;s an honor I share with Monica, Elle, Edward, the entire cast, who, in a genre doin\u2019 a biopic that could be perhaps tired, everyone gave it their all. So deeply grateful to them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And lastly, I can&#8217;t downplay the significance of this award. Cause it means the most to me. And I know we\u2019re in a subjective business, but <b>the truth is, I\u2019m really in pursuit of greatness. I know people don\u2019t usually talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats.<\/b> I\u2019m inspired by the greats. I\u2019m inspired by the greats here tonight. I\u2019m as inspired by Daniel Day-Lewis, Marlon Brando, and Viola Davis as I am by Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps, and I want to be up there. So I\u2019m deeply grateful. This doesn\u2019t signify that, but it\u2019s a little more fuel. It\u2019s a little more ammo to keep going. Thank you so much.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Variety\/status\/1893871817384767869\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">source<\/a><br \/> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com\/130087986.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet after winning the #SAGAward for Male Actor in a Leading Role: &#8220;I know we\u2019re in a subjective business, but the truth is, I\u2019m really in pursuit of greatness.
